Cook Like a Boss – How to Make Spaghetti Bolognese

Spaghetti bolognese is one of our favorite pasta dishes. It’s essentially spaghetti served with sauce made from minced meats (typically beef), tomatoes, garlic, herbs, and wine.

The sauce is usually called “Bolognese sauce” or simply spaghetti sauce, but it’s more Central/Southern Italian in style. That’s because the actual Bolognese sauce served in Italy comes with tagliatelle, not spaghetti.

Today, we’re making ragù alla bolognese sauce with tagliatelle pasta. However, it’s a bit different from the recipe registered by the Italian Academy of Cuisine in the Bologna Chamber of Commerce. This version doesn’t have milk.
